Looks like Aaron won't be staying at Ibrox. His valuation has gone up about £1million since he came to the club on loan (due to the state of the pound), and since Rangers have (to put it mildly) fuck all money we can't really afford the £3.7 to keep him. At least we have him for two years though, its a small comfort even though Walter refuses to fucking play him despite the fact he's been brilliant the few times he's come on. I can see his point in a way, we have him for two years so take the first year to get him used to the club and get him used to Scottish football but now Valencia are saying they might take him back after a year it all just seems a little...eh. He's a good kid we need to fucking play him while we have him (and pray we can keep him).

A friend of mine mentioned last night that if we sell Boyd (worth £4m) then we could buy Aaron (against the fucking point by the way) but that irritated the hell out of me as well. Just because he's playing in the SPL he's only worth £4m (recent events aside which may, although I fucking hope not, have affected this) had he been playing down south since the start of his career he would have been worth so much more; at least £10m (still "small" figures I know compared to what most people are used to hearing).

I guess I'm just really worried about the state of my club just now, financially more than anything (as well as the usual), it seems like everyday there's something else that is getting the alarm bells ringing. That's all non-football staff been made redundant now. Fucking scary to be honest.

Anyway, in better news. Five of our boys have been called up for the Scotland squad.

-McGregor (who I think should be first choice for our number one (I'm not just being biased) because yes, Gordon is good, but McGregor is better just now. Simple as that and he deserves a chance, he's been fucking spectacular for Rangers this season).

-Broadfoot (who I can't help but just go "aww" and I don't know why). He's just...special.

-David Weir (he's 93 now but he can still do it!)

-Barry Ferguson (now, the amount of SHIT in the papers about Fergie these past two days has been disgusting. He was one of the only ones on the park on Sunday who actually looked like he gave a flying fuck about the game (a couple of really daft mistakes aside) yet he's getting slated left, right and center for not being good enough, being a bully and players not playing just because he's on the pitch (what the fuck is that one supposed to mean by the way?) Nonsense. He's the best we've got to lead club and country, hate how every bugger going starts to come out of the woodwork against Barry whenever we lose something).

-Kenny Miller (first choice as a lone striker, which is quite right and although his form hasn't been great this season for Rangers (for whatever reason) he alone has scored at least half of the national goals of the current squad.

(No Boyd obviously as his toys are still firmly outside of the pram on this one)

+ OMG two weeks untl reima comes over to Glasgow!!! *dances* so so sooooo excited! *g* (we need to talk btw, bb, so I know what bus to get and what hours to get off work).

Title: Life in Technicolour Rating: NC-17 Pairing: Kris Boyd/Aaron NiguezDisclaimer: Complete fabrication and total untruth. Word Count: ~1500Summary: Simple words with a complex outcome. A/N (1): Okay, so I decided to try out something completely different. A pairing I’ve never written and a style that I’ve never used for fic. To be honest, I was just playing about with words and technicalities to see what I came up and this is it. I’d be really grateful for any and all feedback for this, even if you don’t know/like the pairing, I’d just like to know opinions good or bad. Be brutal. A/N (2): This is for deathinacave and reima ♥, if it wasn't for their kind words and encouragement there's not a chance in hell I would have even posted this. Thank you.

I got more work done again today in another two hour sitting. Just need another two or three hour sitting and it'll be all done. Under a cut because as it is of ma thigh it might be NSFW and I'm sparing those of you who just don't want to see another goddamn tattoo ;)

There's no colour by the way, the redness is just blood and ouch. We (when I say we, I mean Steve) decided that we're going to add some colour afterall though, in the cherry blossom. The initial idea was just to leave it greyscale but a wee bit of colour here and there is gonna look "fucking mental". I included the oh so glam cling-film pic this time 'coz its awesome and gross. ( sexeh legs XD )

Take a look at this picture? Do you want to see Nacho cry? DO YOU? I for one do not. Socks up lads, get it sorted.

Hope. Frustration. Anger. Despair. Oh boys, you don't half put me through it all, season after season after season. That was awful. Painful actually. I'm distraught. I've been ranting all night about it (some of it in language I shall not be repeating in my journal) so I'm spent. No more. All is not lost and the season is not yet over. Just...gotta pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and get the fuck back on with it.

BUT! A Small rant at the expense of Broadfoot. IF YOU WERE GOING TO GET SENT OFF FOR SOMETHING MAKE IT WORTHWHILE AND BREAK THAT LITTLE CUNT MCGEADY'S LEGS. (I Fucking Hate that little twat. Loathe and detest him. If there was any one person who looks like you'd want to smack in the pus more I can't think of them).

If I have to see that look on Barry's face again this season I won't be able to take it, really. That hurt so fucking much...I managed to keep it all together until I saw him welling up and that was it. Gone.

Eh...good points? Nacho's back. New pitch at Hampden looked gorgeous. Lafferty played pretty well and it looks like he's coming into some kind of form eventually. Think that was it. But that said...not good enough, really at the end of the day, any of them, was it?

'to quote Churchill; he is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma'- from The Scotsman about Kris Boyd.

So apparently he got banned from training and got completely bollocked at by Walter Smith because of his attitude problem, which more or less rules him out from the Celtic game. Now, don't get me wrong, I completely and utterly adore Kris and I think he's an excellent player when he wants to be but as much as his diva antics can be hella amusing I'm starting to think that maybe he needs to, y'know...grow the fuck up before he burns all of his bridges.

There's been rumours floating around for the past year or so that the only reason he's being kept out of the squad is because of a drug problem or other such shite (which every fucking tim I know has jumped on gleefully...the twats). But the fact of the matter is we have four excellent strikers, Miller's a speedy little fucker and can score a good goal, Novo's gonna be back soon and he can be a complete pain in the arse for the opposition and Lafferty's a great wee player as well (despite all the recent flak he's been getting), so Kris isn't going to be in every game, yes he's a complete goal machine but other aspects of his game just are not up to that same level, he's got an inconsistency about him which is why, sometimes, he does get left out. But instead of trying to improve upon them he takes a complete hissy fit strop about it. Not the right attitude. It shows a lack of respect for both Ally and Walter Smith in their team selections and of his teammates. It wouldn't be right if he wasn't dissapointed, of course, but he just needs to deal with it better.

Anyway, there's been a crap load of stuff in the press today about this being the end of the line for Boydy but I don't think it will be. It's hardly a secret that Watty doesn't take shit from anyone and it was getting to the stage that something was going to have to be said, no player is ever bigger than the team. He won't leave Rangers. At least, I really fucking hope not.

That was a disgrace. Respect where it's due but to lose against ICT at home is an embarassment. Please to be ashamed of oneselves and sort it the fuck out as I for one cannot take yet another year of the fucking tims winning the title.

Love, always

P. S Davie, as a gentleman of somewhat senior years, thats just unacceptable. Shame on you.

Latest: (under a cut because its probably NSFW as it is of mah thigh). Outline only at the moment (and that took two hours in itself). Didn't manage to see Steve last night so I went up early this morning (I've spent 5 and a half hours in the studio today overall XD) and got the design finalised,tweaked and prodded until it was perfect. Didn't hurt too much, the bit nearest my knee was by far the worst (poor Stevie was getting called all names under the sun at that bit) it was more just the dead leg situation going on that sucked. Anyway, I'm extremely thrilled with it and I'll quote Steve here: 'It looks like fuck all at the moment' but when it's finished its going to look gorgeous. So without further ado...my latest ink baby.... ( tatterooooo )

Sorry I pretty much disappeared off the face of the planet the past two days, I just checked my email and just about passed out over seeing the amount of things I have to respond to. I'll get there, I promise.

Been working double shifts and drinking obscene amounts, these things are not exclusive of one another. (It's practically law to drink behind the bar on Sunday afternoon, truefax). Work's been particularly trying the past two nights, two of the more memorable encounters were: a guy coming into the pub solely to puke in the fucking fire. Then today got racist abuse shouted at me by an idiotic Englishman. Fuckwit. Anyway, there's more but don't want to go into it. Glad to be home put it that way. *shattered*

When not at work this weekend I was next door at the tattoo studio. Just chillin', no other reason. Got the usual 20 questions about the weekend on Fri afternoon and a bitch about various locals at our respective pubs. Good times. Worried and excited about Thursday in equal measures. He's hiding the final design from me until it's "perfect" so I'll see it on Tue or Wed so I can tell him exactly whats wrong with it and what needs changed XD.

Got this done to the back of my neck, crap pic btw sorry, you try taking pictures of the back of your neck when your half cut ;): It didn't hurt too bad, my friend, Laura, who came with me when I got it done said it looked pretty damn brutal though. Pity, would have wanted to see it.
